    Clearing Samples (for the underground artist)

    I wouldnt let the legalities of sample clearance worry you if you are just starting out. Sampling is an artform and one any self respecting hiphop producer needs to learn, its only when you start making waves(and money) in the industry that anyone will bother claiming damages.

    Clearing Samples (for the underground artist)

    Thats why when I compose music I just use the reason factory soundbank. Its so much simpler that way. I would like to have a hardware synth or a workstation to generate the sounds, but for now I use reason soundbank. I try not to use any samplepacks, except for drum hits. There comes a point...

    Week of July 14 2008

    I didnt even realise there was a new flippage. Nothing happened last time around, there was nothing wrong with the sample. Ah man that main theme is sick, im on it.

    Clearing Samples (for the underground artist)

    With sounds and sample packs, you have to know where every sound has come from and must be accounted for. Especially if the sample is plain to hear. I have heard Madlib say that he has never cleared a sample, and hes never been sued, but he really does make things pretty unrecognisable. You...

    need help on the drums for the beat that i made...

    I agree that programmed drums is a the best option, but its in the using the loops you can start to understand how drum patterns are put together, until you understand that the beat patterns will be square. If you see what I mean. Someone who is useless with drums or how they work would get a...

    Clearing Samples (for the underground artist)

    I have known for a long time about the pitfalls of sampling, the costs of clearance etc. It was that that drove me to try and just compose tracks, but after joining ill I realised in the flippage section that sampling is integral to getting the true hiphop sound. If you are going to release...

    paging GOD, SHADEED, i got contacted on myspace about my work

    The Myspace Moguls post is some very good stuff. It highlights the truth that with a boom of wannabe producers and artists there is also a boom in those seeking to take advantage of the niche it creates to make themselves some money from the dreams and aspirations of the unsigned artist. I...

    Joe Pesci, Jack Nicholson, Christopher Walken, Robert Deniro impersonations

    I really like the Joe Pesci and Christopher Walken, I dont think the Jack Nicholson comes across so well with his face but the voice is good.

    Word!! 20% sounds a bit steep tho, but these days I suppose its becoming more frequent. Just last year the advice i received said 15% was a top end figure. But thats exactly right, the manager has the beleif in the artist to make enough to be paid in a percentage. And its the manager that...

    Art. What defines art? or an Artist?

    But I like to sit down and watch a film from time to time, especially an action film. And you dont always know if its going to be an original film until you have seen it. That M Night Shyamalan is really an original thinker, he does some great stuff. But I would never have known that unless Id...

    Art. What defines art? or an Artist?

    The distinction between what is art and what isnt has been a long running argument. Like on the last TopGear(which I missed but was told about), there was a beautifully crafted car, but the art elites wont accept it as art, even though it is exceptionally designed. Just because something is...

    UK MC BATTLE Professor Green vs Stig

    I only heard of professor green the other day, my workmate was telling me about him. I like a good old fashioned mc battle without it turning into violence. I would have liked to have heard some beats going on too though.

    The Roots..Rising Down

    For real musicians to make good music they need to get together and jam. But then I havent heard the album yet so what do I know.

    This sounds dodgy to me, he even says himself its a new venture. New ventures are much more risky than established ventures. And the messages seem a bit unprofessional, like shadeed said. You need to know more about what your $450 is for. Just lawyer fees? Theres a smelly fish right there. Ask...

    Art. What defines art? or an Artist?

    I think that when I had my first stoned idea about the whole thing I sort of blurred the difference between art and great art. Sincock was right I was talking about bad art, as well as the nature of fame these days. I was trying to also make a point about fame used to be earned and not a result...
